Research Abstract |
The present research established simple and rapid systems to determine drug concentrations for azole and candin antifungals. The research performed pharmacokinetic analyses of drug concentration data, which were obtained by measuring concentrations in plasma and biological fluids, at the target sites, of patients. Then, the research examined the relationship between pharmacokinetics and pharmaco dynamics by incorporating pharmacogenomic data(wild type, mutant heterozygous or homozygous mutant of P450) as covariates. By Monte Carlo simulation with this modeling, the research investigated the optimal antifungal regimens. Also, the research developed software technology that healthcare professionals can design the optimal antifungal regimens based on information about the patient and causative bacteria.
